I picked up my AV Stampede Target today at the post office and spent two hours of great fun shooting it with my two HW30S, one in .177 and the other in .20 caliber.  I still can hardly believe that an inexpensive target can be so much fun.  Thanks PA for the great shipping/packing service!  Charles

@sekiar I think I have a similar one, only with ducks on it... bought it years ago from a local airgun shop (long gone now, sadly !).

It is a great target... magnets hold the targets down, correct ?

I forget what "brand" it is... RWS or Crosman, maybe... Just don't use too powerful of an airgun on it.

Here's what mine looks like in my basement airgun range.

Mine looks just about the same, just different figures.  Did spend about 2 hours today shooting the target with my just delivered HW30S in synthetic stock in .22 caliber.  Some of the hits was so strong that the target figures just bounced back upright without staying down.  However I did notice on some shots a little smoke came out of the barrel.  Just got to enjoy breaking it in and that's the fun in having a new gun.  Charles

@sekiar How about a review on your New HW 30s Synthetic.22 Rifle ! That’s the Rifle I’ve been thinking about! Never had a Hw 30 in .22 but did have a RWS 24 TO 5 .22 but Sold it to a Good Friend! Did buy a Full Tuned Xisco XS 12 .22 and It’s just a Great Silky Smooth Shooter .

This is my second HW30S in .22 caliber and since I only shoot at about 10 to 20 yards I really like the knock down power of the .22 over my HW30S in .177 caliber, however my HW30S, in .20 caliber, is near in performance to my .22s.  Just love all four of my HW30S. Two have peep sights and the other two are factory.  Also have a HW50S in .20 caliber and it does show its knock down power when hitting my metal targets.  Charles

@sekiar I had the welds break loose on mine, but I repaired it... so I only use pistols or weaker powered rifles, like my R7 .177, Erma ELG-10, and Beeman FX-2.
